The purpose of the study is to determine the number of both full-time and part-time employees in each business on the Island.  The data is being collected solely for the use of traffic and transportation planning and will be treated with full confidentiality. 

Representatives from the Council are to call to business premises on the Island and will produce their identification cards to confirm their bona fides. The survey commenced on Monday 15^th July and is envisaged to take approximately three weeks.
